Callejo Madero via ferrata (Ramales)

Come rested and in good physical shape: it is a demanding ferrata that punishes the arms and ends with a suspended rappel. Wear mountain footwear with grip soles, comfortable clothing, ferrata gloves, and bring water. Keep your phone and camera secure for the Tibetan bridge and the rappel. The best time is from spring to autumn with dry rock; avoid rainy days. Always follow the guide's instructions, especially during the final rappel, and remember never to unclip both carabiners at once during progression.

Good physical condition and previous experience in via ferratas are required. The route involves intense arm effort on overhangs, crossing a long Tibetan bridge, and a final free-hanging rappel. It is not suitable for people with severe vertigo, heart problems, shoulder, elbow, or back injuries, or pregnant women. It is essential not to be afraid of heights.

Ramales de la Victoria, gateway to the Valle del Asón, is one of the major active tourism destinations in northern Spain. Its limestone relief features via ferratas of all levels, renowned climbing walls, caves for caving, and gorges for canyoning, all amidst holm oak and beech forests. The village offers hospitality and accommodation, serving as an ideal base camp to combine several adventures in a few days. Very nearby, the Parque Natural de los Collados del Asón adds waterfalls, viewpoints, and hiking routes that complete the visit.
